Since stepping on the worlds stage, Mr. President and Mrs. Obama have actually inspired a nation to embrace its heritage and to take notice of what it has to offer. We are being challenged to revisit what made us fall in love with this great country. This will help spurn the economy and get it chugging along eventually. I'm so proud to see the country looking forward to the days, weeks and years ahead with a new first family leading the way. Way to go Mr. President and Mrs. Obama:)

God bless the president!

People wonder why celebrate the election? Places that brace the President will prosper from his popularity...

As personable as these two are, I can envision the secret service blocking off a city street around them to have evening dinners at a nice restaurant and enjoy the ambiance of the neighborhoods. It will be a nice change to see the first family participating in American life with average Americans. Shucks, I'd make it a party wherever thet go in Washington just to loosen the stuffed shirt crowd!!!

I love it! Finally a President who is embracing our city–and not snobbily eschewing it.

My recommendation for Mr. Obama's next meal–Obelisk on P street. A hidden gem that offers the most equisite northern Italian fare to be found anywhere.

Next let's start improving american education, it's really suffering. I don't want the world to think we all are a bunch of "W's".

Wow! People fussed about the amount spent on Obama's inauguration, but if D.C. businesses got a billion dollars worth of business from it, it was a pretty good deal! Turns out the inauguration was the first stimulus package of the Obama administration. It brought in more business to the nation's capitol than it cost and it wasn't paid for with taxpayer dollars. Pretty cool!!!

You need to get to work Obama. The labor unions are waiting on you too. They gave you 85 million dollars. Deliver your promises.

In this time of depression our president will be out spending taxpayer dollars to boost the sales of restaurant owners who support his campaign. He will be creating a significant national security risk each week to feed his own ego and celebrity image. Meanwhile he condemns execs for flying chartered and accepting bonuses.

The H doesn't stand to Hussein, it stands for Hypocrite. Corrupted, egotistical, do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do Democrat hypocrite.

Al Gore, with his million dollar monthly energy bill and son who drives his Prius at 100pmh while hopped up on pills, would make a great dinner guest. So would Nanci Pelosi, with her giving government money to her husband and personal jet.

Oh Please! Kennedy style? Get a life people, and stop this asinine Kennedy comparison. Obama hasn't done anything. Time will tell.

This family is completely different than many of their uppity predecessors. They will make D.C. their home and not act as though they're too good for normal folks.

THE LOCAL'S NEED TO CHILL FOR A MOMENT. . .

PRESIDENT OBAMA, HASN'T HAD A LOT OF TIME TO EAT OUT-HE'S BEEN TRYING TO PUT OUT, BUSH'S FIRES!

Can they send this picture to the archives? Its a sight for sore eyes on any given day.

lol....now he HAS to make a visit to Marvin's.....lol good marketing..at it's best.

Americans are starting to put too much pressure and too much importance on the Obamas.

They are not the NEW COMING, GODS, or YOUR SAVIORS.....they are just human beings like the rest of us.

He currently has a very important job to do and he should be left alone to focus on the economy.

Let's get that done first before we start worrying about all the phony materialistic things like glamour and style.

Obama may be all sytle, but he's definitely NOT all substance. Style fades, substance takes root and sprots many branches. This guy is so over rated.

how about some more CAMELOT?
it was created two years after JFK was killed.
JFK never participated.

There is one hell of a difference between Obama and Kennedy. Actual prior service in which one was willing to make the ultimate sacrifice for one's country, for starters.

what a stud.

Love it!! Let's see what the GOP"S have to say about this!!!!!! They are such sore Losers!!!!!!

Good for the Obama's.........the Bushes were afraid to venture off the White House grounds !!!

very nice
im really rooting for you Barack Obama
so far so good

nowhere near camelot

Where should I throw up. These guys are no Kennedys, give me a break. We got a militant lady and a dude with big ears, that is a good teleprompter reader.

Sounds like someone is racking up brownie points

Change.....Change......Change... I will continue to believe in. Not just words; my President and First Lady are back them up with action!

God bless you First Family and our Great Nation!

Welcome Camalot!

Now that is a new way of redistributing wealth and enjoying doing it while bringing up our spirit!

Guess all that money spent on the inauguration was worth it after all.

Just because he can go out and have a grand evening with his cronies or his wife at an upscale restaurant, does not help feed and house the people out of work across this country. If people are attending your restaurants just because he ate their, then we are a shallow nation and we are in trouble! That fixes nothing!

So far the Obama family has been partying there brains out:

More than $150 million dollars spent in DC two weeks ago by the inauguration committee alone,how much was spent by the people attending???Hotels and restaurants should be well healed for a while.

People need the president top go out to dinner before they will?
Now that we have a president that likes the night life, well now Washington will light up! What a bunch of hooey.
If President Bush went out alot, the libs would be saying, "How dare he in these tough times", but when Obama goes out, they'll say "he's so cool and hip and they're so bringing back the Kennedy era(don't get that at all) and saving the economy".
This is disturbing and strange.
